10 Terrible Video Games We All Ended Up Owning

10. Enter The Matrix

Back in May 2003, people couldn't get enough of The Matrix - the third film hadn't yet come out and tainted everyone's perception of the IP, and so a Matrix video game was basically a critic-proof slam dunk.

Enter the Matrix was not a good game by any stretch of the imagination, as even beyond its bug-riddled, stilted gameplay, you were forced to play as one of two underwhelming Matrix side characters, Niobe or Ghost, rather than as Neo, Morpheus, or Trinity.

Yet The Matrix was such a hot commodity that the game nevertheless went on to sell gangbusters, ultimately shifting 5 million units worldwide. If you were a teenage boy playing video games in 2003, you definitely owned this thing.

The tragic irony is that the effortlessly superior 2005 follow-up, The Matrix: Path of Neo, was an infinitely better - albeit still flawed - game, yet apparently sold poorly enough that its commercial performance was never even publicly reported. Oof.
